Been here several Times and tried a lot of different foods…read more I think we've honed in our order after this last visit. The chips and salsa are fabulous. Love the flavor especially for those that don't like cilantro like me. Then the guac! It's just fresh avocado but I love it. And a margarita. Haven't loved the grilled meat, always seems overcooked and tough but could just be how we ordered because of the mixed company. Flavor seems lacking also though. Tried the beset salad this last time and wouldn't recommend. Looked pretty but the beets were lacking flavor and then there was an odd sauce on top. Complemented with dry spinach so that will be a pass next time. Great service and lots of people! Nice bathrooms.

Small restaurant inside Monterrey airport . It's for quick bite before flight back to stateside…read more Staff was friendly and helpful. They had small menu items. I ordered ribeye steaks with mashed potato and spinach sides. It was good for airport restaurant. I guess I can recommend it if not to picky and to kill time here waiting for flight out.

I sampled a few different things, would definitely recommend one of the shrimp taco entrees. The prices are a bit high for Monterrey, probably because it's located in a plaza surrounded by American hotel chains for international business travelers. Still, comparably cheap to what you'd pay in the US or abroad. Not sure if this is always the case, but when we went, none of the staff spoke English, and I didn't see any English menus either. Not a problem for most US travelers such as myself, but just a precaution for anyone with zero experience with Spanish. Will definitely come back next time I'm in the area!

Great food, bad service. The hotel recommended this place and I had high hopes for a good fish…read moreplace. That is true. I had the small Ceviche. The fish was fresh and we'll prepared. The seasoning was well balanced. I could have used more onion but that's just me. The Quesada Mexicana was quite good, rich with flavor and very cheesy. It appears to be a chain and while there were a number of travelers when I arrived it soon was locals only which I took as a good sign. The reason for 2 stars? Despite being the ONLY table in the restaurant at one point, and never being more than 1 table per server, I had to wait a ridiculous amount of time and then had to rush to catch my shuttle. The funny thing was my server was not too bad, but the bartender seemed to intentionally avoid making my drink. He would stand there doing nothing and when she asked for the drink he suddenly had to put glassware away. It was like he was mad at her. I'd recommend it for a casual lunch or if you're staying across the street and don't care when you get served, otherwise there are several other restaurants in that strip mall that frankly looked and smelled more interesting. Give it a pass until they straighten out their service.

This is a hotel restaurant. I waited at the door for about 5 minutes before being approached. Once…read moresat, I waited another 5 minutes plus without a menu while other tables got sat and were given menus. There seemed to be only one waiter. I left and went to hotel bar hoping to get better service. Marginally better. Ordered the tortilla soup which was good. Waited quite a bit longer for my Steak Tampiquenia. The steak had good flavor. Guacomole was fresh but could use a little salt. The salsa had some serious heat :) The wine selection is pretty weak. One of each varietal and only average. The irony was that I am eating here to save time, but probably could have walked up the street and had a far better meal, quicker. I won't be dining here the rest of the week except for breakfast.

The food, the staff and service was excellent. Had a beer special that's always a great start…read more Staff understood English and broken Spanish well. It is super local! Staff very accommodating! Had the ribeye was excellent! Will be back when in Monterrey again!

They have a great selection on the menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The bar was hopping! I had what I would have to call the ultimate tacos. Gaoneras Fresnos. Corn tortillas, queso, thinly sliced grilled ribeye, chicharron, avocado, onion, cilantro and some green sauce. There was so much on top of each tortilla that it was hard to fold! That's not a complaint. They have homemade tortillas chips and fresh salsa, both mild and spicy. I did not have room for any dessert but they looked good. Price was very reasonable for the amount and quality of food.

Now, I've been trying to find the more authentic/traditional Mexican joints to eat at, but my business partners down here always try to take me to the more "Gringo-esk" eateries...and it drives me nuts! Lately however, I've been doing my own homework (Thanks to yelp - although seemingly underutilized En Mexico still...) and requesting the various joints to try. Restaurante Santa Fe was a nice find. Close by to many other options, this was a nice detour from the regular status quo luncheon for a more authentic trip down a traditional lane. And...it's not far from a Tim Hortons... :)...just saying. :).
